It has definitely declined from host to host. I believe Tom Bergeron and Bob Saget were iconic compared to having Carlton host.
The humor just seems more forced from the host and it's always the same acts that win.
America conflates cute with funny. Submit a cute baby video and you could win big.
The most funny acts hardly ever win or make it to the finals.
Eventually, I lost interest in viewing regularly for this reason....
It's a classic for it's earlier years, but I'd only recommend viewing if you have absolutely nothing else to watch
6/10- Michael I.
